Patience is not only a song by GNR, or a irtue but it is a playing style that works well with a full ring game. For the 6max tables just play every hand as if you are in late position and watch the chips come your way. I personally like the ring game better however.

advangtages to both a full rign you can play less agressive and wait for hand and 6 handed you can play more agressive and cant wait as long for a hand....i dont have a favorite it depends on the mood im in that day and the way i want to play....

Actually, to be honest, my new favorite game is heads-up. That's why I wanted to start that heads-up tournament in special events section.

Me too. I always play 6-max these days. I agree with Combuboom that there is more money to be made there if you have an edge over the opposition.
I drop out and find a new table if it falls below 5 players, though. On a table that is ery short-handed, everyone plays ery loose in order to beat the blinds, and it becomes much tougher to put the opponent on a hand.

Shorthanded because it lets me play the players more and the cards less. (most of the time, someone does not have a monster)

6 handed is the name of the game, you dont have to worry as much in early position with a KQ so you can be the raiser and theres just not as much competition.

Then maybe it's time to shake your game up. Go to the pot limit games. These are great to play at when you are changing your style of play. You can limit your loses there but still make a killing with good hands. Play hands that you normally wouldn't and bet them out. Go to the tables that have the one monster stack and watch how they play.

Full ring for me. Don't mind waiting a while to catch some cards knowing some donk will stack you when you hit. Also suits my TAG play better.

I like full tables more because generally I set aside long periods of time to play and can wait for the right moment and like said above alot of the people that play 6 handed arent there for long and I seem to have to hop around tables more and it takes a while to get good reads on players since I dont use a poker tracker.

I like the full table , not really sure why , I dont have different way of playing , I just think more people, more money in pot , then if I get a hand they wont all fold.
6 max is ok but I hate when it gets down to 3 or 4 .

Also if you are trying to play passive as your choice I would move to the short handed PLHE tables. This is the spot where you could really shine.

I play 6-max for a couple reasons:
1) I don't have tons of time to play, so the games go a little faster.
2) It appeals to my somewhat LAGgy style. I can play more hands and see more action. Me likey. I can more readily play the players ersus the cards as well.

im fine preflop, my PFR is always right around my VP$IP but seems like I get scared when I see the flop and just go into calling station mode and usually let people catch.

Personally, I have had better results at full ring, playing TAG and LAG. For some reason, at 6max I really try to LAG it up and get crazy to the point where I am a maniac. I just cant seem to control myself with the action moving so fast. Also, I think the competition is a little bit better at the 6max tables.

if your best asset towards winning is your patience and taking advantage of donks who will stack off light i think full ring is a good choice
if your best asset towards winning is making better decisions than your opponents.. essentially reading and just playing better, 6max is likely more profitable for you because you should rightly be involved in more hands and thus have more opportunity to execute that edge
overall full ring is probably "easier" to play profitably (patience, patience, patience), but 6 max has a greater earnings potential the better you are
